Trouble with onload function

I'm sure you guys are tired of seeing this kind of message, but this is
hopefully something a little different. I searched first.

I am using Drupal for a site and I also want to use Nifty Corners Cube
for styling purposes. On certain pages, Drupal adds its own onload
functions, so I am using the workaround built into NCC, the
NiftyLoad=funct ion() method. It seems that the onload event is not
getting executed in Firefox Mac (the only other browser besides Safari
I can test on right now). The script fires off in Safari. Here is what
I have done to test so far.

1) Change from NiftyLoad to window.onload on a page where no other
onload attributes were called by Drupal.
2) Include a alert('okay'); call in the window.onload event for
debugging.

Neither of these yielded any joy. I hope someone out there has the
answer.

P.S. I think the same is happening with Firefox PC and IE 6 PC because
I had my wife test yesterday while at work and she said the corners
weren't rounded and the columns weren't the same height. I will test
this myself when I go to work later today.

I guess you are talking about this stuff:

What does the JavaScript console say?

Are you saying that onload function is not fired at all in Firefox?

Asking vague questions with no code and no error messages means you've
got little chance of decent help.

The way to attach multiple load functions without stomping on others is
to use something like:

if (window.attachE vent) {
window.attachEv ent('onload', functionRef);
} else if (window.addEven tListener){
window.addEvent Listener('load' , functionRef, false);
}

where functionRef is the name of the function (or some other reference
to it) without a following '()'.

Hi everyone, I'm writing a function (in javascript) that needs to do one thing if the page has not loaded, and another (different) thing if the page has already loaded. I'm looking for a way to tell if the window.onload event has already fired. I cannot edit the onload event handler itself, and my function can only exist in an external js file, sourced from the document's head section. Any ideas?

My web host inserts banner ads into my html pages. The javascript in these banner ads interferes with the onload triggered javascript functions in my pages.

Hello, I am looking for a cross-browser way (Firefox 1+, IE 5.5+) to have my Javascript function execute from the BODY's "onload" method, but if there is already an onload method defined, I would like mine to run immediately after it. So in the code below, what JS would i need to add to my "myfile.inc" page so that I could guarantee this behavior? <!-- main page --> <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript">

I'm working to get the onLoad function of a javascript to work: the script allows form buttons in html to refer to labeled frames in flash. Which works fine.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
